A power fault disrupted train services on all 16 stations on the Circle Line on Tuesday morning


SINGAPORE: Transport Minister Lui Tuck Yew said he understands the frustrations of Singaporeans affected by the recent disruption of MRT service on the Circle Line.

Mr Lui was speaking to reporters at the sidelines of an aviation event on Thursday morning.

He has asked for investigations into the matter to be focused on two aspects - SMRT's preventive and maintenance framework and how the cause of the disruption can be more speedily identified and isolated.

Mr Lui said the second aspect is crucial.

With the opening of stages 4 and 5 of the Circle Line on October 8, any disruption of the same nature can potentially affect more commuters.

The disruption on September 20 due to a power fault had affected nearly 27,000 commuters during the morning rush hour.

On whether SMRT will be penalised for the breakdown, Mr Lui said it is still too early to tell as investigations are still ongoing.

Fine SMRT -> SMRT happily pays -> Paint a sob story to PTC on their reduced profits -> thus justified a fare hikes -> PTC agrees -> SMRT passengers pay more.

In short, Fine MRT -> passengers pay for it.

Lui = MBT.

Mr Lui...pls, if you are really serious into this, you should immediately reverse the fare hike first...say you will freeze this until the investigation report are out.

I think it should be rephrased as customers as they are paying to get a ride onboard.

On the other hand I find it strange that the National Library would address all readers as customers when they are just there in a public capacity to enjoy the rich selection of books and modern facilities without needing to pay for anything save a few petty fines on those absent-minded ones.
